About this property
Diagon Alley 2bed flat on Victoria St Grassmarket Edinburgh a magical apartment
Welcome to your enchanting Edinburgh escape — a beautiful two-bedroom apartment set right on Victoria Street, one of the most photographed and beloved streets in all of Scotland. With its colourful curved façade, cobbled lanes, and whimsical charm, Victoria Street has long captured the imagination of visitors from around the world — and famously inspired Diagon Alley from the Harry Potter series.
Here, history, architecture, and atmosphere intertwine in the very heart of the Old Town, a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. Just a short stroll from Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile, and the lively Grassmarket, this location offers the perfect balance of ancient character and modern city buzz.
